Athletics unveil 50th anniversary jersey patch for 2018

The Oakland Athletics will have a 50th anniversary logo on their jerseys and caps to start the 2018 season, the team announced Tuesday.

The patch, which depicts the Bay Area skyline and is shaped to match the city's iconic Fox Theater's marquee, will honor the franchise's half century since the team relocated from Kansas City to Oakland in 1968.

Along with the jersey patch, the team announced there will be alumni events, special promotions, and giveaways throughout the 2018 season. Fans will also have the opportunity to vote for and honor franchise icons when the Oakland Athletics 50th anniversary team is unveiled next season.
